Wow! I'm 9 years old? I don't feel like I'm a senior cat! It's hard to believe that 9 years ago today in a yard in SE Portland, OR, USA, my mom-cat gave birth to my brother Knut and me. I think we had other littermates, too, but I'm not sure because it was so long ago and I was so young (4 weeks old) when I got adopted. My mom-cat, Rachel, was a feral, and my dad-cat, Spongebob, was an unfixed pet. My brother's dad remains unknown. I only know who my dad-cat was because Little Bit and I have the same dad-cat (and so do two of Little Bit's kittens). Little Bit and I aren't littermates, though. I'm the older sister!

Here's a picture of my brother, Knut, hugging me in our sleep. We had just had a bath, and are approximately 4 1/2 weeks old in that picture.

Here's Knut a few years ago, playing at being a Jedi! His mommy, my mommy's coworker Tritia, took this picture while she was folding laundry. Our mommies like to compare notes on how we're doing, because we still have some of the same quirks and personality traits, despite having been in separate homes since we were about two months old.

About Us

One of our internet friends on HubPages gave us our nickname of "PDX pride". Mommy's "name" on there is KT pdx (her initials plus the airport code for Portland, Oregon, the closest airport to where we live). So, when we started hijacking her account to write hubs sometimes, someone there dubbed us the PDX pride, as in a pride of lions, because there's so many of us. The name stuck, and we think it definitely fits!
